Question

Write the equation in vertex form for the parabola with vertex (0, 6) and focus (0, 3).

Answer 1

Explanation:

the axis of the parabola is x=0So the parabola is of the form (x−0)2=4a(y−6)Now the length of latus rectum =4a=4× the distance between focus and vertex =4×3=12Hence the parabola is x2=−12(y−
